When I first started chasing "Tokyo Kaoru" when I was in high school, now I finally chased all four seasons in one breath, since "Tokyo Kaoru" was banned in the mainland, now even Baidu Encyclopedia has no entry, it can be said that it is cold, but I chased it because of my feelings, today I will briefly talk about my feelings about this anime (I am not a manga party, I don't like to spray).
"Tokyo Kuroshin" is important to tell that there are two types of human beings and kuzu species living in the world at the same time, human beings have a very normal life, but kuzu species are not the same, the biggest difference between kuzu and people is that they need to eat human flesh to survive, so the kuo species prey on humans in large quantities in order to survive, and at the same time, there are "stable areas" and "bronze trees" and other species organizations. Such acts were sanctioned by humans, and ccg, an organization against kazukaze, was formed.
The protagonist of the story is Kaneki Ken, who was originally a student of the University's Department of Chinese Literature, with a lonely personality but a love of reading, and only his only good friend, Ying, until he met Miss Shili whose life changed - he became a one-eyed kaoru, neither a human nor a kuo, thus opening the story of him wandering in two different worlds.
From the first season to the second season, Tokyo Kaoru is ok, the plot development is slow, but it can be seen that it is telling a good story, and in this slow pace, people can think about the meaning of each of their plots and lines, which is good overall.
By the third season, it seems less smooth, after all, the end of the second season is a big pit, and the third season has been filling this big pit. Because the protagonist of the third season was replaced by Sasaki Ayashi, I looked confused and searched to find out that Sasaki Ayashi was actually an amnesiac version of Kaneki Ken, and the third season was also telling the story around his recovery of memory.
The third and fourth seasons came out and felt that there was really no money to do the plot can only be used in the fight, it is said that the last two are still made by the author himself, just to give the audience an ending, which I am very touched and grateful, but the plot is hasty is hasty, although it is not to criticize anything, it is simply to complain.
The third and fourth seasons have changed slightly from the first two seasons, and the pits dug in the first and second seasons have basically been filled, but every time the pits are made up, people are caught off guard, and when I see a person who is already dead suddenly appear, I really am "Huh? Why isn't this man dead? For example: Kotaro Yamon, and then a person's true identity was exposed, "God, this person is actually a one-eyed species!" "For example: ccg chiefs.
And the relationship between the characters is also very complicated but brushed over, and many of the emotional savings in the middle, although it does not affect the viewing, still need to use the brain to think about it (blame me for being too lazy). There are also many characters who die a little faster, especially the big boss of the second season, the One-Eyed Owl, who died hastily in the second episode of the fourth season.
In short, the overall story is finished, hastily rushed, and it is interesting enough to use the four seasons to tell.
From the first season, we can see how incredible the world created by the author is, full of violence and bloodshed from beginning to end, and it is really not suitable for children. At first, Kaneki Ken felt that the relationship between Kaoru and himself could not be beaten by eight rods, until he did not become a one-eyed kaoru that he felt that the world was different from what he imagined. Growing up alone, he felt even more isolated from the world.
The world is distorted, what is right and what is wrong, is it not worthy of living? Can't humans and species coexist? The answer is that in Tokyo, kuroshi has been throughout the four seasons, in fact, in our world, there is nothing that is absolutely black and white, and everyone is doing what they think is right in order to survive.
Kaneki Ken was like this, when he first released Kotaro Yamon during the battle, he said that he was just doing what he thought was right. Later, in each season, he was struggling, contradicting himself in a contradictory world, as if he were unworthy of the existence of this world.
In Tokyo Kaoru, Kaneki ken is gentle, kind, deeply in love with the world, with people who want to protect, with the will to become stronger, whether he experiences the cruel destruction of becoming a one-eyed kaoru or a gecko or finally watching Ying die in his arms (of course, in the end, he did not die), he wants to live well and love the world.
The author began to create this work when he was young, and also grew up with Kaneki, at first they could not understand the twisted world, and always emphasized that the world was wrong and not themselves, but was this really the case? Maybe it's just that you haven't fully accepted yourself and accepted the world.
In the end, Kaneki Ken became the One-Eyed King in the fourth season and fought with the old duo before he said his thoughts: "I am just an ordinary human who likes to read, since the agreement with Miss Shili, many things have changed, my life has been targeted, I have been tragically tortured, and there are many things that have not been able to die well, but now I have a new home, I have an elder who can be called a teacher, there are friends like friends, and people I love deeply, obviously I have made so many mistakes. It has hurt a lot of people, but I don't think it's pointless, so even if I knew what was going to happen in the future, I would go to See Miss Shili, because all this is needed for me, the world is not wrong, it just exists there..."
The last sentence is that Kaneki Ken has struggled for four seasons and finally reconciled with this twisted world, not that the struggle is useless, but even if the world continues to twist, only those who have experienced the struggle know that in the end it will not be meaningless.
Our world is the same, not to say that a compromised life is meaningless, but to continue to struggle and change, because we have a meaning of existence.
In fact, throughout the "Tokyo Kaoru", it is not difficult to find that this fan still wants to talk about love, not only love, but also love between friends, but also love between the same sex, because love makes Kaneki Ken feel that the world can accept him, he can also accept this world, love itself has a very powerful force to support a person. Kaneki Ken is a kind of insecurity, inferiority, and even a little insane when he goes on a rampage, but when he finally wakes up, he has friends and lovers like family members on the side, and it can be said that he has transformed because of love, and has been accepted by the world because of love, and has changed. (Later, Jin Mu and Dong Xiang also had children [Aunt Laugh])
Of course, there are a lot of tragedies, I have to say that "Tokyo Kaoru" is also caught off guard, on the whole, it is more like a depression, seeing the ending can feel healed, therefore, don't complain about the world, feel with your heart, you will gradually fall in love with this world.
The above is purely personal opinion, do not like to spray, civilized surfing, thank you!
